Patent AU-2012221027-B2 (AU)
Title: Expandable packer with mandrel undercuts and sealing boost feature
Inventor: YEE CHEE K
IPC: E21B33/128
Filed: 2012-01-10
Granted: 2016-11-10
Abstract: An open hole packer uses mandrel expansion and a surrounding sealing element that can optionally have a swelling feature and further a seal enhancing feature of a ring with an internal taper to match an undercut on the mandrel exterior. As a swage progresses to the taper at the transition between the ring and the extending flat fingers, the fingers get plastically deformed in an outward radial direction to push out the sealing element. Shrinkage of the mandrel axially due to radial expansion brings a ring on the mandrel outer surface under the fingers to act as a support for the fingers against the seal which is pushed against the open hole. Mirror image orientations are envisioned to aid in retaining pressure differentials in opposed directions. Another external mandrel ring extends into the seal to keep its position during differential pressure loading.

Title: Radiation-induced thickening and radiation-induced triggering for set-on-command sealent compositions and methods of use
Inventor: LEWIS SAMUEL J
IPC: C09K8/508
Filed: 2012-03-02
Granted: 2014-12-04
Abstract: The present invention includes methods and compositions relating to the setting of fluids or slurries in a wellbore. In one embodiment, a method of isolating a portion a wellbore includes preparing a sealant composition having a fluid component, a polymeric additive constituent, and a set modifier component. The sealant composition is placed into a wellbore and subjected to ionizing radiation. The ionizing radiation can cause bonding between polymeric additive constituents and create a polymer matrix within the sealant composition that increases the mechanical strength of the sealant composition. The ionizing radiation also alters the set modifier component, triggering the thickening of the sealant composition.

Title: Method of making extruded self-clumping granular absorbent
Inventor: LIPSCOMB JOHN M
IPC: B29B9/10
Filed: 2013-09-11
Granted: 2017-03-09
Abstract: A granular absorbent and granular absorbent making method producing granular absorbent from a carbohydrate starch-containing cereal grain, e.g., corn, based admixture extruded from a single screw or twin screw extruder forming liquid absorbing pellets having a clumping agent formed during extrusion composed at least in part of carbohydrate polymer binder. Each pellet is extruded under conditions that cause formation of carbohydrate polymer binder clumping agent at least some of which is water soluble. One preferred method of extruding granular absorbent causes starch dextrinization to occur such that at least some of the carbohydrate polymer binder clumping agent in each liquid absorbing pellet of the granular absorbent is formed of dextrin. Each pellet can be coated such as with a smectite that preferably is bentonite. During use, clumping agent formed during extrusion of a pellet dissolves and flows in between and along adjacent pellets when the pellet(s) is/are wetted causes the pellets to "self-clump" without the presence of any clumping agent additive producing a granular absorbent that not only performs well but which is faster and easier to clean up as a resulf of its "self-clumping" formulation.
